This was a test by Nascar to test how safe the new car is . This is a 130mph impact with the safer barrier
You mean the new tech isn't a permanent lug nut?

Less than what you would think. It was the equivalent to a glancing blow, approximately at a 25 degree angle. That would significantly cut down on the Delta V, or change in velocity, which, when combined with some fancy math, can be converted to G-Force. Very survivable crash, even in a regular vehicle. The Delta V was probably around 30 mph change. Definitely would feel it later that night.That definitely was a very hard hit and more than likely took the right front off the car . I wonder what the G forces registered on that hit
